Captain John is a submarine sailor commander,controller of a batallion peace keeping force. Himself and his army went on an assignment to a far distance , a thousand miles east of the meditarance sea. The captain and the army who had travelled seven hundred miles away from the north of the sea suddenly encounter a hard long rock that stand as an obstructure before the army . After several fruitless attemt to demonlish the obstructure before them, captain john and his army left for rescees and they all went for cabin .Before the arrival of the troppe the captain discover that an eroption had just occur to the rock and thus pave way for the army and the ship .This eperience was a suprise to john and made him to look back to the particular point and said," at last we have our way, though the rock was thung yet it was clear complete off our way ".
one thing we must all know is that our God is a God of perfection in other words God is a perfectionist . The children of isreal left the land of Egypt and embacked a journey to a promised land cannan . They have had a pleasent journey all the while not until they approach the encompassed land of jericho.The land of jericho was surrounded with a wall that stands as an obstacle to the journey of isreal to inheritance.The cannan land is the hope of the isreal and here is alimitation before them.God befell this wall completely to prove to the all nations of the earth that he is the God that satisfid his own children.Also to prove his ability to satisfy yhe needs of own no matter how big.Joshua6;20"So the people shouted when the priest blew with the trumpets;and it came to pass,when the people heard the sound of the trumpet,and the people shouted with a grat shout,that the wall of jericho fell down flat,so that the people went up into the city every man straight before him,and they took the city".God delivered the people and satisfid them in their inheritance.
The original word of satisfied is perfection,fulfillment and complete.to be satisfied is to be perfected,to be fulfilled,to be completed.An english dictionary once define satisfied as the mood at which someone is pleased.whether because of his achievements or because of something he wants to happen has happened.Satisfied is the stage at which you are fulfilled with something you have just done.It is the moment at which you derive your uttermost joy in something.In other words to be satisfied is to be completed.
A man can only be said to be satisfied when he had accoplised that he has purpose to do.so to be satisfied is the product of an end road.
Satisfied can be said as a word related with good success and prosperity.Joshua1;8'This book of the law shall not de4parted from your mounth ;but shall meditate therein day and night,that thou mayest observs to do accordiong to all that is written therein for there thou shall make thy way prosperious and thou shall have good succes".To be satisfied is also to share of God`s divine nature.The six verses of "And God saw that it was good"is also an example of God perfectionalism.Genesis1;4,10,12,18,21,25.Above all is to see that ones work,or the works of your hands are perfected.Gen1;31"And God saw everthing that he had made,and behold it was very good".To be satisfied is to enter into the place of perpetual rest.Hebrew4;10."For he that is entered to his rest,he also hath ceased from his own works,as God did from his".
Satisfaction is not made for a life outside Jesus christ,because Jesus is the way,truth and life.He is the one that has passed through the way we have not,the one that he was,is,and is to come.The beginning,the ending and his promise is to take us to the place of our rest.So therefore being satisfied is having Jesus as ones pertsonal lord and saviour.For nthat has christ has all things.
